Cartoonist Dean Norman
has been drawing Wally's Woods cartoons since 1992. The cartoon is
especially appealing to people who love nature and the outdoors. We recently
communicated with Mr. Norman, and discovered that he had a collection of
cartoons about Bluebirds, which he generously offered to allow us to place
on our website.
Mr. Norman began
drawing his Bluebird cartoons never having heard of the importance of
predator baffles, so you will notice that his early cartoons depict Bluebird
nestboxes affixed to trees or fenceposts without any baffles. However, after
attending a presentation on Bluebirds given by Dean Sheldon, he realized
that the use of predator baffles were a vital part of good Bluebirding.
Thereafter, he drew a cartoon strip series dedicated to the subject of
baffling, and began promoting the practice of proper nestbox mounting and
baffling in his community.
